Kidder, Tracy
Mountains Beyond Mountains: The Quest of Dr. Paul Farmer, a Man Who Would Cure the World
(2)
YA
Adapted by Michael French.
French adapts Kidder's adult examination (first published ten years ago) of "doctor to countries" Paul Farmer, leaving the ethnographic journalistic approach intact and allowing Kidder's personal interpretations to surface. Without making Farmer a saint (and for such a dedicated and driven individual, that's not easy), French's adaptation gives young readers a thoughtful examination of a complex man operating in a complex world.
